About

Within walking distance of Boston’s Fenway Park, Canestaro serves up rustic Italian-inspired favorites with an upscale flair. For example, their cooked-to-order charbroiled burgers raise the bar on fresh ingredients and flavor combos like their tasty gorgonzola and onion burger ($8.95) and heat-inspired cajun burger with spices, salsa and onion ($8.95).

Canestaro’s entrees range from regionally-inspired classics like the seafood grill (shrimp, scallops and salmon served with garlic mashed potatoes for $16.95) and pesto-crusted salmon ($15.95) to hearty combo dinners including their mixed grill (chicken, steak tips and shrimp for $15.95).

A Peterborough Street favorite in the West Fens area since 1992, Canestaro offers both a take-out menu and a more elaborate menu for those who choose to dine in. It’s their award-winning pizza and calzone offerings that draw in the post-Red Sox game masses. Also, their Italian favorites like the gnocchi basilico ($13.95), pasta primavera ($13.95) and veal piccata ($16.95) and classics like the chicken marsala ($14.95) and parmesan ($14.95) that appeal to the die-hard foodies.

Warm colors, hand-painted tables and elegant lighting welcome regulars into Canestaro’s dining room. If you pull up a stool at the cherry cabinet and marble top bar, Canestaro offers a full range of mixed drinks and contemporary martinis in addition to their full menu.
